User Ratings & Reviews:
In digital photography, the best combination is when you bring together the Schneider 28mm F/2.8 Digital Lens with large format cameras and digital camera backs.  Though you may have Photoshop to simulate pixels for perspective shifts, a view camera is still required for perfect shape and focus control.
  • Compared to lenses used for 4 x 5 and 8 x 10 films, lenses designed for large format cameras are smaller in size and shorter in focal length
  • The digital sensor chips are smaller than the film format except those 35 mm style digital SLRs
  • The format conversion factor for a 4x5 lens for film to a 4x5 digital lens is 1.39
  • In order to focus light straightly on the image sensor, the Schneider 28mm F/2.8 Digital Lens is constructed with twelve lens elements in ten groups
  • Use the Schneider wide angle lens with slim screw-in filters or 77 mm wide angle filters
  • The center filters of the Schneider 28mm F/2.8 Digital Lens comes with neutral density at the center
  • The comparative focal length of these wide angle lenses is 28mm with 24x36mm sensor and 22mm with 6x4.5cm sensor
  • The aperture range of this Schneider digital lens is 2.8-22, angle of coverage 92 degree @ f/11, and the image circle at infinity is 60mm @ f/11
  • The dimensions of the Schneider 28mm F/2.8 Digital Lens are 81mm x 80mm and it weighs 2 lbs.
